Toni

Hi Annie,
Hope you're feeling better since we last spoke, the rep provided me with Toni's background and asked me to give an update. I felt she was a little traumatized, so felt it best to just provide, reassure and let her come to me on her own. I renamed her Sprite, she is so beautiful, loving, affectionate and is comfortable enough now to explore her new surroundings. I cared for a disabled son for many years until he was placed in a nursing home, I believe we ae a good fit and love having her here...thank-you.
Happy holidays to you and yours!

P.S. She likes Joel Osteen, music and watching tv (:t

Opus

Merry Christmas Michelle!
Last night Daniel was writing an essay and I was on half of his lap for about 10 minutes. I am doing great, my owners love me. I had my testicles removed almost 2 weeks ago and just got out of the prison of the cone of shame. I'm sleeping much better again and Dave and Darlene are so happy with me because I'm sleeping all night. I sleep in their room in my kennel with the door open.
I can't remember the last time I had an accident in the house, maybe before I got my testicles removed.
Thank you again for taking such good care of me and letting my owners adopt me. Josh and Daniel tease me that I've gotten so much bigger I may be fat. My vet thinks I'm healthy. I haven't gone on a 3 mile walk in over a week because the family has been so busy getting ready for "Christmas." I have no idea what it is, but Darlene and Dave put up a tree in the living room that has lights and stuff hanging on it. The best part is there is a wood Nativity set made from olive wood all the way from Israel. I keep on tasting it and trying to chew it . I don't understand why Darlene gets mad at me when she finds the wood pieces on the floor. She put it at my level and I really like to chew wood.
Anyway, I just wanted to say "hi" and let you know I haven't forgotten you and my owners think about you often and how blessed they are that I got to be part of their family.
Love,
Opus

Eyore

Hi Michelle!

Just wanted to write you a quick Eeyore update. Overall, I think things are going very well! Balki is being extremely patient and gentle with the puppy. He's still not super playful, but they do have their moments sharing a rope for tug of war (and despite having about 60 pounds on Eeyore, Balki makes the little guy think he's putting up a a good fight). Balki used to sleep in our room with us at night, but now he sleeps downstairs next to eeyore's crate.

Eeyore is sleeping through the night and now that we've established a routine, he's not having accidents in the house (unless mom is too slow figuring out the harness after eating and he just can't hold it! Mom learned the hard way - put the harness on before you feed him!)

We're still working on the puppy biting, but that will come with time. He's already learned the Christmas tree is not a chew toy and he seems to pick up new things quickly. He's got his name down - next is "outside" and "sit".

We are absolutely thrilled with Eeyore. He's a lot of work, as puppies are, but he seems to be adjusting well and very happy! He's the perfect addition to our family!

Duke formerly Jay

Here is Duke 4 months later after I adopted him.  The first two weeks were not the easiest for me and my family but he's over come some of his issues.  There's one that he's still working on but its a work in progress and I'm aware that things don't just happen over night.  He's a great dog and we love him a great deal. I'm hoping to give him a long happy life just like my last dog Lucky.
Merry Christmas to all the folks at Mag Mutts and all their followers.

Derby from Lebanon

Annie,

Derby has really taken to us and our neighborhood. His personality is great and we are really blessed to have him. He is in his 4th week of training now and loves his treats and the runs that we take (the 1st picture is about 20 minutes after we get home from a run).

Regards,

Ian

Abby aka Janet

Hello!
This is Abigail a.k.a. Abby (formerly Janet) whom we adopted on Nov 28. She is doing wonderfully in her new home and is crazy about her big brother Sparky! She has been to the vet and gotten her next set of vaccines, and her fecal sample was clear.She even got a little face trim and her nails trimmed by the groomer.
When we got her, she had never been outside before, but after a week of observing her big bro she started going potty outside in the yard yesterday! Sparky is teaching her to play politely (without biting) and as the picture shows, they have bonded well. Abby eats well and sleeps all night. We have submitted a DNA test for her to find out just what breed mix she is, and should have the results around Christmas. I will let you know what it tells us!
We all love our new little girl; she brings joy to us on a daily basis.

Amour

Just thought I would share Amour's Birthday picture. Since we didn't know Amour's exact birthday we decided Nov 30th would be her birthday. She will have been with us a year in Feb 2015. She still makes us laugh, and brings us so much joy. Everyone says she is totally spoiled with love, attention, treats and toys.

Thanks again,
Heather
